With all these new tablets coming out like mushrooms after rain, it’s hard to bring something new to the game. But the new Boogie Board manages just that.

The Boogie Board LCD Writing Tablet sets itself apart from the rest of the tablet pack through its capability of replacing the good old pen and paper. That’s right, with this eco-friendly gadget, you can say goodbye to carrying notepads and notebooks with you everywhere you go. With the included stylus ( or any other surface, including your fingers) you can write and draw whatever you like on the Boogie Board, and save it or delete it with the simple press of a button.

Unfortunately, the Boogie Board doesn’t do color yet, but black and white is good enough.

Become a Virtual Flyer with Wings for Wii

May 25th, 2010 Gadget Freak

Wii-Wings

The Nintendo Wii has had its share of wacky accessories but the soon to be launched wings for Wii are plain crazy.

I have to say I’m not the biggest fan of Nintendo’s wonder console and this latest gadget doesn’t improve things at all. Apparently, the new Wii Fit Plus update includes a new game, called Bird’s-Eye Bull’s-Eye, where you have to flap your arms as fast as possible, while keeping your balance on the balance board, in order to guide a chicken to a series of targets, to collect points.

Now that’s embarrassing enough, unless you’re a toddler, but the guys at CDA Digital thought they’d make things better if they launched a pair of strap-on nylon wings to “add a sensation that you will not be mimicking a flying chicken with your hands alone.” Oh yeah, great thinking guys.
